Genomewide scans for natural selection (GWSS) have become increasingly common over
the last 15 years due to increased availability of genome‐scale genetic data. Here, we report …

Mitochondria are unique organelles carrying their own genetic material, independent from
that in the nucleus. This review will discuss the nature of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and its …

Genetic diversity underpins species conservation and management goals, and ultimately
determines a species' ability to adapt. Using freshwater environmental DNA (eDNA) …

Statistical methods for identifying adaptive mutations from population genetic data face
several obstacles: assessing the significance of genomic outliers, integrating correlated …

Genetic rescue can reduce the extinction risk of inbred populations, but it has the poorly
understood risk of 'genetic swamping'—the replacement of the distinctive variation of the …

Selection on complex traits can rapidly drive evolution, especially in stressful environments.
This polygenic selection does not leave intense sweep signatures on the genome, rather …

Guatemala's wild avocado germplasm holds vital genetic value, but lacking conservation
strategies imperils it. Studying its diversity is pivotal for conservation and breeding. The …

We evaluated the genetic structure and ecological niche segregation of Apis florea Fabricius
1787 (Apidae: Apini) across its native range using genetic and ecological niche data. The …

The routine use of DNA sequencing techniques and phylogenetic analysis has resulted in
the discovery of many cryptic species, especially in the oceans. The common, globally …

Insect pollination is fundamental for natural ecosystems and agricultural crops. The
bumblebee species Bombus terrestris has become a popular choice for commercial crop …
